A Lot Happening in the States
I guess I should leave the country more often. An NPR piece that I recorded just before i left aired last night. Here is the link if you missed it:
My play, Fly, went up at the Lincoln Center Institute last night and ended to two standing ovations. I'm so sorry I missed it. I can't wait to see the final show when I get back.
As for the NPR piece I played it for the kids on my computer and they were not at all impressed. All they said was, "That doesn't sound like you? Whey did they use someone else's voice." It didn't sound like me to me either. In real life I am much more of a mumbler.
Well, it's ten o'clock here and I need to get to work. Later the kids go for their sleepover. The resulting quiet will freak me out.
The other high point of my day will be la poelee des coquillages, pan-fried shellfish, and a glass of cold rose for lunch at the Moorea beach club followed by a late-afternoon nap on the beach. I'm trying to soak all this up now because a few days from now I'll be back sweating again in Manhattan.

I still prefer the first title of your "still in progress" book. "Father of the Year." All the other new ones sound wishy washy and don't quite give you a true indication of what the book is about.

Yeah! Why do solo men get the praise for raising children and it's an everyday event for solo women? It's like you've conquered this great challenge and you get honor roll. Where's our praise and ribbon? LOL Great observance!

Trey,
I read a piece you wrote on MSN about post-divorce dating. It scared me to death.
You were telling my story, and I don't even know you!
Surely, with the same story, profession (writer) AND last name, we are destined to meet soon...
Peace,
Glenn Ellis
